Microsoft has made another huge donation to the best-practices code base. I've just finished giving the code a once-over and I'm very pleased indeed. They've tighted things up on all the old application blocks they previously shipped. The application blocks that comprise the Enterprise Library are the following:

Security Application Block. This application block allows developers to incorporate security functionality in their applications. Applications can use the application block in a variety of situations, such as authenticating and authorizing users against a database, retrieving role and profile information, and caching user profile information.

My recommendation is to download this code and learn to use it, the code is solid and the documentation is much improved.
